Chapter 98: Victory, complex battle situation
Chu Yun's offensive was like a turbulent wave that could not be contained. The coalition's siege tactics were completely bankrupt. Under the frightened eyes of the coalition forces, our general Yi Jing fled all the way. Behind him, Chu Yun was chasing after him with a rainbow of momentum.
This pursuit directly aroused the momentum of the entire Shu Family Army. The originally evenly matched balance suddenly tilted towards the Shu Family Army.
After another quarter and a half, the Daoism in the air gradually became sparse. Demon Beast, which was originally used as long-range firepower, had basically exhausted its demonic energy.
Restoration Daoism is very rare. The two armies can only feed elixirs that replenish the demonic essence. However, this elixir is not a precious commodity. Because it must meet the quantity requirements and the cost is certain, the quality is only inferior elixirs.
The weakening of long-range firepower directly caused the battle between the two armies to change from a mutual attack method to a hand-to-hand battle.
"The other party is scared, let's all rush together."
"Kill one without losing money, but kill two with guaranteed profit!"
Shu Family Army's copper bell soldiers were each dressed in red, holding swords and hanging copper bells on their waists. Their morale was ferocious. They stormed the coalition ships, and the bravery and fearlessness of the Shu Clan men were fully demonstrated.
The copper bell soldiers can be mass-produced, and the basic quality of the Shu Family Army soldiers is far better than that of the coalition forces. Almost a moment after the battle, the coalition leaders were shocked to find that their own side could no longer withstand it. The balance of victory had tipped to the Shu Clan's side.
"Shu Family Army's morale has been completely boosted by Chu Yun."
"A bunch of fighting madness!"
"Withdraw, it will be too late."
When it came to withdrawing, the brains were still a little hesitant. But when they saw Chu Yun flying towards them, they suddenly became determined.
"Withdraw! Leave Green Mountain here so you don't have to worry about running out of firewood!"
"That's right. This battle is All-Star Archipelago's largest naval battle in a hundred years. Such a large-scale battle must be fought at least three times. Winning or losing one battle means nothing."
This is the sea, with a vast battlefield unobstructed, and no dangers on the ground.
The coalition leaders made up their minds and began to retreat slowly. They had too many troops, and they had been fighting fiercely for so long. Even if their morale was not high, the bottom line was still there.
Half an hour later, the two armies flew away. The coalition forces paid a heavy price for their retreat. The more than ten generals, three admirals, and nearly a hundred warships left behind were all annexed by the Shu Family Army.
This fierce naval battle was the first confrontation between the main forces of the Shu Family Army and the coalition forces. Both sides invested all their forces in anticipation of a decisive battle.
But the result was a stalemate after the war. Chu Yun took the lead in breaking through. Shu Family Army's advantages accumulated step by step and eventually turned into a victory.
From the encounter in the morning to the fierce battle at noon, now the sun is setting, and the dim afterglow is reflected on the sea.
The scarlet water was filled with a bloody smell that was so strong that it choked your nose. Fragments of various ships and the corpses of soldiers were all rising and falling on the sea.
Among them were members of the coalition forces, soldiers of the Shu Family Army, and even the corpses of generals.
On the flagship, Shu Tianhao stared at the entire battlefield. The sunset reflected on his face, but it could not relieve his solemn expression. "Although we won this time, it was a tragic victory. The coalition's bottom line is still there, and there is still a huge threat. To determine the real victory, we need to fight a few more tough battles!"
"The losses of the coalition forces are much heavier than ours. After searching the battlefield, we believe that we can make up for the heavy losses." Chu Yun comforted from the side.
At this time, bathed in the dim light of the setting sun, Shu Family Army organized more than 5 warships to clean the battlefield.
This is for the winner.
They will collect a large amount of loot, including Demon Beast with long-range firepower, damaged battleships that can be repaired and continued to be used, and Demon Crystal that are too late to absorb. The items on each general are also worth looking forward to.
The important thing is that they will find many soldiers of their own side who were seriously injured or fell into coma, but managed to survive on the battlefield.
A large part of these people can be cured. After being cured, they will become a vital force that cannot be underestimated. This will largely level the gap in military strength between the Shu Family Army and the coalition forces.
"Speaking of which, it's all thanks to you!" Shu Tianhao looked back at Chu Yun. As soon as he looked at his love, his father's originally tightened brows suddenly relaxed. His iron-like expression melted away, and he smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth.
He is really satisfied with Chu Yun!
This child's performance amazes people every time. Now, every soldier of the Shu Family Army knows that if there were no outstanding performance of Chu Yun in this battle, the casualties would have been even more severe.
"Dad, it is everyone's duty to protect Wei Family's garden. It's just Azure Sea Dragon's injury..." Chu Yun's tone was full of worry.
After all, Azure Sea Dragon is seriously injured. In today's battle, the fierce battle between Shu Tianhao and General Zhao Xie has made Azure Sea Dragon unable to hold on.
After the battle, Azure Sea Dragon vomited three liters of blood, and his injuries tended to get worse.
"My ambition in this life is to once again travel across the world and travel all over the world. Fighting so heartily is worthy of it." Azure Sea Dragon himself is very heroic and nonchalant.
Since Shu Tianhao's physique has been significantly improved due to the Dragon Eye Fruit on the Mount Li longan branch, Azure Sea Dragon has become more loyal. In fact, his own temperament is quite consistent with Shu Tianhao's temper.
As soon as Azure Sea Dragon was mentioned, Shu Tianhao lowered his eyelids, looked at Immortal Pouch at his waist, and sighed, "Azure Sea Dragon's situation is not very good. He cannot sustain a long-term fierce battle. Today's war has exceeded his limit. Fortunately, the other party retreated, otherwise, it is very likely that my place will collapse first."
Speaking of which, this battle was actually very thrilling to win.
If the coalition forces did not take the initiative to retreat and persisted for a while longer, Azure Sea Dragon would be defeated. It would probably be another situation.
Half an hour later, the results of the battle were brought up by a general.
Shu Family Army lost more than 6,000 people and 57 battleships. Among the generals, there was no shortage of direct descendants of the Shu Clan. Wu Datou had a good record, general Three Elders also performed well, and the sea sharks led by Wang Zelong performed surprisingly well.
However, many of the Yan Family's generals died.
There are advantages and disadvantages to this matter. The disadvantage is that Shu Family Army does not have many generals, and the death of one of them is a huge loss. The advantage is that this greatly curbs the power of the Yan Family and makes Shu Clan's position as the leader of the family more secure. In the long run, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
Among the generals Yan Family, there are naturally some who show off. After cleaning the battlefield, rewards will be given based on merit. The first general Yan Family is none other than Yan Jisi.
After this nv general replenished the Rainbow Smoke Sparrow group, his efficiency in controlling the herd and defeating the enemy was surprisingly high.
This made Chu Yun couldn't help but feel excited. "The Spirit Beast Master style of group attack has always been suitable for destroying enemies in a large area. In the battlefield, destroying the opponent's soldiers is the method of choice. By the way, I also have a set of demon control spells like this, and they are of the highest grade."
The <Laughing at the Vast Sea> obtained from the Star Sea Dragon Palace is the sound control group attack method, which was the method of Sea Dragon King's fame. It is just Chu Yun's talent for music theory. The talent has never been very good, Laughing at the Vast Sea's cultivation is very difficult, and the group of monsters that can enter Chu Yun's Dharma Eyes have not yet appeared. Therefore, it has been shelved in Immortal Pouch.
"Now is not the time. When this war is over, a secret treasure in my memory will be revealed. I can just have time to practice while going alone." Chu Yun realized one of his flaws. Now that he has roughly built the framework of monsters, his own methods of controlling monsters are somewhat behind.
"We did not win in one battle today. The other side still has a large number of troops, which seriously threatens the safety of our army. Therefore, you should not be paralyzed because of the victory." After the merits and rewards were given, there was naturally a military meeting. Shu Tianhao solemnly warned the generals present.
"It's exactly what the island owner said. We won this battle, but it was a tragic victory. Our army suffered a lot of losses and is still far behind the coalition forces. We can't be careless." Old Red Spear said in agreement, stroking his beard.
"Island owner, don't worry, we all know that the next step will be a stalemate battle. There are still many tough battles to be fought!" Yan Jisi said.
She has curly hair, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a heroic appearance. She wears a red cloak and has a unique grace in the scene.
She has gradually become the representative of General Yan Family. Although there are many generals Shu Clan in this battle and General Yan Family suffered a lot of losses, she does not resent them.
All the surviving Yan Family generals knew that if the existence of Chu Yun had not attracted many generals from the coalition forces, their losses would have been even heavier.
At the same time, survival on the battlefield depends entirely on your own strength and luck. If you die, it will be due to lack of strength and bad luck. You can't blame others.
After the meeting, Chu Yun stayed and spoke to Shu Tianhao alone, "The coalition forces are strong and our troops are in a stalemate. If there is a stalemate, unless the other side makes a serious mistake. But this is unlikely. The generals of both sides are not incompetent on paper. The timely withdrawal of the coalition forces today will illustrate the problem. The key depends on the reinforcements of our two sides."
"Whichever side's reinforcements arrive here first for support will have a great chance of victory. I have already written to the pirate Crimson Tiger. Tie Ao is blocked by Huang Xiao, so I am not worried. What I am worried about is that because the coalition lost the battle, they will call in a group of reinforcements from their respective forces. Among these reinforcements, there will definitely be some generals to deal with the high-end combat power that our army already has the upper hand."
Shu Tianhao nodded. "Yes, I am also worried about this. We have tried our best, but the coalition forces still have some spare strength. In fact, no matter what the outcome of the war, both sides of the war are losers. No matter which side's power develops, it will stagnate for a period of time. The real winners are Water Family and the Zhu family."
Water Family and Shu Clan have a deep hatred, but they are nowhere to be seen in this battle. This is an act of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, and the fisherman will benefit.
And the Hu family, the original ally of the Shu Clan, died of illness at this critical moment. Hu Ying succeeded to the position of the island owner, and the internal affairs of the Hu family seemed unstable. Therefore, they stayed put and stood aside.
Because of this, the current war situation is quite complicated.
In fact, Chu Yun was not optimistic about the Hu family. He knew that with Zhu Ying's ability, how could anyone within the Zhu family challenge his position? The fact that the Zhu family stood still allowed him to see bad signs.
Wei Family can break the covenant and rebel, why can't the Zhu family?
It's just that Hu Ying is still waiting for the situation to become clear before placing bets.
Thinking like this strengthened his determination. He immediately clasped his fists and asked for orders, "So dad, I want to attack the enemy at night. Before the enemy's reinforcements arrive, I will go deep into the enemy camp to assassinate the enemy! If I kill another general, it will be of great help to the battle situation!"
